Gorgia's music is full of feeling, turmoil an love. A very honest expression of the light and dark that lies within all of us. I needed co capture this, to do so I wanted to use natural light, strong shadows and unusual poses / locations. The shadows in image I. create moody atmospheric lighting, they can also be read as bars to a cell, a metaphor for the feeling of being trapped inside ones self, music being Georgia's form of escapism from the constraints of normality.
